How to Use the Species Modifier for AR

In "Pokemon Diamond" and "Pokemon Pearl," you can use an "Action Replay," also known as an "AR," to change the species of Pokemon that you will encounter in the wild. Several such codes exist; the most popular consists of a master code and then the specific species code. Using this code, you can encounter any of the 493 Pokemon available in the games. This makes it easier to obtain rare or legendary Pokemon. Keep in mind that you still have to battle and capture the Pokemon once you encounter it in the wild.

Instructions

- 1
  Plug your "Pokemon" game into the Action Replay.
- 2
  Plug your Action Replay into the top slot of the DS.
- 3
  Enter the master code at the cheats screen:
  
  94000130 fffb0000
  
  d5000000 000000XX
  
  b21c4d28 00000000
  
  b0000004 00000000
  
  c0000000 0000000b
  
  d7000000 00024620
  
  dc000000 00000006
  
  d2000000 00000000
  
  The second line of the code is what changes depending on the Pokemon you want. Check the official Codejunkies website for what two digits to enter instead of the two X's at the end of the second line. The type of Pokemon that appears in the wild will depend on those two digits.

  Press "Start" to submit the code and choose your save file.
- 5
  Walk into any area where you encounter wild Pokemon, such as a grassy area or a cave, and you will encounter the species that you modified using the Action Replay.
